Avaza vs. Mitel MiCollab

We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.

MiCollab is great for a large office to get users working from home and being able to use their home phone or cell phone like the desk phone at the office. This allows our live operators the ability to see if the end-user is on an active call before sending a new call to them. If you have a very small company of fewer than 10 people this might not be worth the investment as cell phones would work just as well.

• It switches between Kanban view, List view, and Gantt charts which fits varying preferences!
• It helps us work smart by creating dependencies and linking tasks to calendars
• It has a clean, intuitive dashboard that's very easy to navigate

• Mitel MiCollab is great for working remotely. The twinning feature to allow calls directed to my office phone to ring on my cell phone is extremely convenient.
• The feature that allows you to set which device you want to ring (desk phone, PC, cell phone) is great as even when I am in the office, I prefer to just use my cell phone.
• The customer support for the product is first-rate. They are always present and helpful when needed.

• The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be.

• Easy to use pop-up window alerts you to incoming calls, lets you transfer to VM or other users, helpful for conference calling
• Has chat feature to tag someone when they are on the phone, or you just don't want to call
• App for smartphone allows for desk phone to cell phone collaboration

Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

It's very easy to use and setup for everyone who is tech savvy or not!

They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.

Support is typically handled by a reseller. Buyers should evaluate the reseller as much as they evaluate Mitel for the product suite. The few times when the reseller was not able to handle the issue directly, Mitel did step up and quickly answer/address the question/issue.

Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.

MiCollab was great as a VOIP solution and general team collaboration solution, but it lacked in some areas, such as the mobile app, complex configuration and set up as well as the lack of user customization. Overall, the system is serviceable, but seemed rather vanilla compared to its competitors

• Avaza has made it easier to see how long I spend on certain types of projects and where I could be spending more time.

Incentivized

• I'm not a person in a position to really speak to this question as I'm only a user and not involved in purchasing such services. Overall, though, I believe we switched to this to save money and since we seem to be sticking with it, I have to assume that objective has been achieved.
